hello
Can anyone recommend an additional awning storm kit for this awning ?We already have the sunncamp air bars and storm kit but want something sturdy as we will be using it quite a bit in the Lakes this autumn Any advice much appreciated .
you can go over board on air stuff to make them too rigid, they are meant to flex and spring back up in the wind, what you do need is really good pegs to hold it down the the ground, they are more important than anything else

I'd question your need for additional storm straps. I've got a poled 260 version of your awning, and it's had all sorts of hell battered out of it by winds (mostly in the Lakes!), and suffered no damage, or seemed unduly stressed. It seems to be a very resilient shape/design.
Only comments are, mine slid along the rail slightly and ended up a bit wonky (easily pulled back to correct position), an extra guy rope improvised to the side canopy extension buckle solved that. Being an air beam, they do sometimes collapse under extreme wind pressure, but I would have expected Sunncamp's standard storm straps to cope with that as much as was possible.
